OT5 like a boss.

 

[The Librarian]

When you get to higher end content when you have to drop the enemies as fast as possible, precision shots will make you and your team's life a lot easier.

For low level content or against enemies that have no weak spots I fully agree it's incredibly fun to mow stuff down without ADSing with Scout Rifle.

I hate ADS, so whether or not it's more efficient, I'm not going to use it unless I have to.

 

[UpDownLeftRight]

Will the engram guy ever give you an exotic engram after ranking him up?

Yeah, but to avoid actually having to give you something you want he gives it to the post master to hand over to you instead. Just more signs of how much he hates guardians. I'm thinking he works for the vex.

 

[ForteanMan]

OT 5? That's crazy! Love the title too, I totally did that this morning in order to bump up to level 25.

 

[TheCanisDirus]

Anybody know of a master "list" of sorts that tells of how to get / where to find the more rare upgrade resources / currency... i.e. "Strange coins can be found in everything from blue engrams to chests and are often a reward for strikes." etc.

Trying to find the best ways to farm/find...

Strange Coins
Motes of Light
Ascendant Energy
Ascendant Shards

 

[Icyflamez96]

bought legendary? I dont get it

 

[Strider]

Hey InvisibleStride

you mentioned The Suros Regime is the best weapon in the game.
Is it better than the Shadow Price?

I own both, but use the Shadow Price more often.

Hey!

To clarify, I said based on what I've seen I think it's the best gun in the game. I dont have it myself to check so the Shadow Price may actually be better as I haven't seen that in action as much. But I've watched plenty of streams and have a handful of exotics myself and I can say the Suros Regime definitely appears to be the best. It's laser accurate and has bonus damage modifiers. Hopefully I'll get it myself soon to try it out.

How did you come across your Shadow Price? You can buy that one from a faction right? I need to look into purchasing it.

 

[Alcoholikaust]

best way to guarantee legendarys:buy them

 

[Heroman]

I hate ADS, so whether or not it's more efficient, I'm not going to use it unless I have to.

Why? And you are going to have to use it .

 

[ZROCOOL]

Damn, OT5 already?

 

[Xeroblade]

Still like Cave Story better but this OT will do just fine.

 

[Marcel]

Spoiler

Only rubes grind marks for legendaries. Believe in the cave

 

[Heroman]

Damn, OT5 already?

more like OT4 cause OT1 was just a hype thread.

 

[anddo0]

new thread, same gif!

this is so unfair

Warlock has songsinger
Titan has weapons of light

The hunter doesn't have anything nearly as effective as those two IMO.

 

[BraXzy]

XUURRRRR WHERE ART THOU XURRRRRRR!

I have 40 strange coins and a thirst for suros regime and heart of the praxic fire.

I have 41 and I also would very much like Suros Regime to pop up in the store. As for the armour piece for hunter.. either the Alpha Lupi chest piece or the Head piece from the first week. Then I'll only need one a PvP exotic for a Warlock and I will literally be fully geared for three characters. Even though I only have a Hunter.

[Anton668]

quick question-

is there a site that shows what the shaders look like on armour?
not just the colour circle, but an actual applied shader on armour?

really dont wanna waste stuff on a shader i'll regret!

 

[Dylan Sexbang]

Slowly losing interest in this game. And it's making me sad cause I love it so much.

I have a 27 Titan, a 23 Warlock and a 20 Hunter across 50ish hours of game play. I'm going to try stepping away for a bit and see how I feel when I come back, that can bring back the spice sometimes.

 

[naeS]

The higher your Cyptarch rank, the less of a chance you will get something awesome and you will hate your life even more.

truthfact.

Explains why I keep getting 4 Rare Engrams upon leveling up...

 

[Zakalwe]

I hate ADS, so whether or not it's more efficient, I'm not going to use it unless I have to.

If you can hold your own and not hamper your team in the Raid and Nightfall etc... without it then I guess it really doesn't matter.

I'm just not happy unless I'm at least 50% precision shots. Makes me sad. ;_;

I'm waiting for my Halo clan people to be raid-ready (they hate resource farming more than I do). We'll knock that out and then Destiny goes on the shelf until DLC time.

you can continue to earn EXP bar beyond 20. Every time you completly fill it out, you will be rewarded with 1 mote of light.

They are also randomly awarded for public events.

1 is guaranteed for your 1st of the day (collect from postmaster) then random drops after that.

 

[E92 M3]

Damn, made one business call and missed first page

Also, does it make me a snob that I don't want to buy exotic weapons from Xur because everyone else will have it lol? Kinda lowers the exotic nature of it for me.

[skynidas]

i need someone for completing the strikes and heroic story missions. i'm a level 27 titan. add me to play right now: PSN: JamonSerranoSky

 

[EL CUCO]

You should see this after killing one. Sunsingers come back from the dead in blazing fury.

 

[JohnOfMars]

Coins - Weekly strike + random
Motes - Random + Leveling past 20 (when your character would have gotten a level, you now get a mote).
Energy - Random + breaking down legendary or exotic weapons + daily story mission + public events (guaranteed either energy or shards for your first of the day, chance after that)
Shards - Random + breaking down legendary or exotic gear + daily story mission + public events (guaranteed either energy or shards for your first of the day, chance after that).

Added more.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

Same. Scout rifles should be 100% headshots

 

[Kaiken]

About time we have a decent title. Only took 5 OTs.

 

[KiefbladeMaster]

In both PvE and PvP. Arc Blade mostly just gets you killed in strikes, since it takes a while to kill anything above grunt units and in PvP it leaves you too open unless everyone is grouped together.

 

[Flying Toaster]

I need confidence like this in life.

You are a baller.

 

[Daemul]

This 200 fallen headshots bounty is bullshit and has been up every damn day since the Queen's Bounty started.

Oh cool

I got the Shadow Price through a legendary engram. It's fire-rate and accuracy are pretty good, though it lacks impact.

I have the Suros Regime mostly upgraded (missing two damage upgrades). I like the gun, but the damage bonus comes at the expense of fire-rate while ADS. It has it's pros/cons in PVP, owns everything in PVE despite not being fully upgraded.

 

[ZROCOOL]

So, is the Queens armor worth keeping? I'm a level 28 Hunter with no Raid gear.

 

[KINGofCRA5H]

This 200 fallen headshots bounty is bullshit and has been up every damn day since the Queen's Bounty started.

You'd think they would be able to hand pick which bounties show up so there aren't any repeats. Nope, it's random, like everything else in the game

 

[nicoga3000]

Yeah it sucks a lot.

 

[Flying Toaster]

Don't kick an easy bounty to the curb.

Pretty easy tho

Whatever Dax was doing when we were playing crucible was working.

 

[FlutterPuffs]

....you know for a 7 point average game, it sure got to OT5 fast.

Loving it. Destiny's floppiness has been widely exaggerated.

 

[140.85]

About how much does Xur charge for stuff, anyway? I'm curious if I'll have enough stuff.

 

[cakely]

Awesome title, guys.

 

[Ridley327]

So, is the Queens armor worth keeping? I'm a level 28 Hunter with no Raid gear.

If you're already level 28, then no. The armor you get from her missions isn't going to be any better than the stuff you already have. Use them as a source of Ascendant Shards, since this event has been the best way to get them.

 

[ComputerMKII]

What are some good Glimmer farming techniques?

 

[Zakalwe]

I'm only a net positive for anyone I'm with.

It's good to talk, better to headshot.

On this topic, imagine a perk on a weapon that went something like:

"Remove accuracy penalty during all movement. Cannot ADS"

Same. Scout rifles should be 100% headshots

That's why I love my SR. The explosions on headshots make it double satisfying.

 

[LiK]

About how much does Xur charge for stuff, anyway? I'm curious if I'll have enough stuff.

13 was the lowest when I checked last week. Should be the same unless Bungie changed it.

 

[hydruxo]

This 200 fallen headshots bounty is bullshit and has been up every damn day since the Queen's Bounty started.

Easy with a hand cannon. Knocked it out by running Scourge of Winter twice.

But yeah, wish there were better bounties than that everyday.

 

[Seil]

About how much does Xur charge for stuff, anyway? I'm curious if I'll have enough stuff.

Exotic armor pieces are 13 strange coins a pop. Weapons vary, Red Death was 23, Gjallarhorn was 17. Exotic engrams are 23 motes of light.

 

[KiefbladeMaster]

About how much does Xur charge for stuff, anyway? I'm curious if I'll have enough stuff.

I think like 12 or 13 strange coins for the exotic gear available, and like 20-something motes for the engram.
